The scene is in slow motion. His mind seems to detach itself from his body without warning, as if she were traveling to another place. As if her world stopped and turned around, everything seemed a little more diffuse. She is stage fright. A fear that repeats itself in Lupe’s fictional universe and, perhaps, the greatest acting test for Carol Sevilleprotagonist of it has always been methe new original series of Disney +.
“It was hard to put myself into such a serious, older girl character when I’m very outgoing,” admits the former. I’m Lunaabout to give wings to the “greatest role of my career”, which will be back on screens this Wednesday, June 15.
Accustomed to jet lag and accumulating miles of work, Karol moves like at home, but in a hotel in Recoleta. It is not ten o’clock in the morning and although she is not in his hometown – but from the heart – he is on fire. “Get home,” he says to break the ice, when in fact she is the newcomer.

“Coming back after a long time brings me a lot of nostalgia. Basically I grew up in Argentina and I consider it my home ”, he tells of the destiny that left him much more than a premature world fame and some porteño catchphrase. “It was very nice to land at the airport and that they continue to receive me like that. It fills you with love, “he admits.
-And that it’s been four years …
“Argentina always brings me good things and good luck,” confides the young actress.
-Argentina is always present. She always brings me good things and good luck. Now I’m back for work, but I hope it gives me time to see friends and also to meet some again Monday (cast of the youth phenomenon that made him popular). the truth to finish I’m Luna, I started my career as a solo singer and the arrival of this new character was: wow. Disney always surprises me.
– Didn’t you imagine coming back?
-I never left. The truth is, I have Disney forever on my forehead, they have always been my family. And that they continue to set you as an example is a great responsibility and gratitude. I still have the backpack and I love it. Because I’m growing up in my day, but I’m also making projects that grab my attention.

– Was part of the growth also distancing oneself?
-You must always distance yourself. I said no, I had to work all the time. But sometimes you realize you have to take those breaths to say: what am I going to do with my career? Do I want to sing, do I want to act? Because I was so lost.
-And how did you find yourself?
When did this project arrive? This is what brought me back to my career. It is always difficult to grow up. It is a very big challenge because they do not teach us or from which a manual comes: you will live it. Hopefully … But that’s the best thing about learning.
He is also a singer. “Women in music are coming with everything, and it’s very important,” he says.
And in this moment of transition I traveled to Colombia, with a director who told me: you are no longer here I’m Luna, let’s do something else. She was removing small things that I had planted a lot. Lupe has arrived at a very beautiful stage and she has changed me in many things. And the music also gives me that respite of being able to deviate a little from a character.
– Another independence …
Yes, it was very nice. Arriving in Mexico and being able to find myself with my music, compose, find this voice and express myself as I am. Because in the end I keep growing, having experiences and writing them is very interesting. It is also a process. It’s part of the ride and I love the watering process.
Madness for Lali Esposito. “The fan that comes out when I see it is huge,” she says.
She adds: “Women in music come with everything and it’s very important. Everyone has something to say and much more needs to be promoted. It is nice to be able to sing different nationalities and collaborate, because this means that we are talking and that they will listen to us ”.
His meeting with Lali
-Do you still have the illusion of doing a business with Lali?
-I love her! I still love her. The fan that comes out when I see her is huge. If it happens tomorrow, I’m happy. I would love to and not only with Lali, with several Argentine artists, singers and actresses that I admire and respect.
– Did you have any other offers to return to the screen earlier?
-I had proposals, arriving in Mexico. And also from other countries. But the truth is, no character called me.
Karol Sevilla talks about the cyberbullying he suffered.
-What was missing?
-I don’t know, in every character I always look for a challenge. And none of them gave me that personal and acting challenge that he said: it will be hard for me, but I want to do it. Until Lupe arrives. It is always a responsibility when you are asked to star in a series and most importantly when your calls go through and you see that you will have plans from start to finish. You know you’re going to have a blast on set.
-But in the Colombian Caribbean….
-How awful, isn’t it? (Series) It was to record and listen to the sound of the sea as we recited the lyrics. Scenes that literally made you want to see the back rather than the characters. I think this energy, always present, has helped us a lot as actors and the sea is essential in this story.
-You have reached millions of young people and used it to raise awareness of the criticisms you have received about your body on social networks. Is this your first time being cyberbullied?
– See if. Obviously when you grow up you find yourself with so many things in the networks that you don’t know how to manage. But it is very important to be able to talk about these problems that are happening and not normalize …
– Are you talking about the other’s body?
-Yes, but it’s not like I have a magic wand to change things.
– Aren’t we so evolved?
I think it depends on each person. Personally I try to carry the message that is fundamental and for my audience. My biggest advice is to be yourself, make your dreams come true and be happy. This has always been my biggest motto.
And he clarifies: «Everyone manages their social networks as they want and says what they want. It is a social network of free expression. But yes, we have to change several things and it is a time-consuming job. Talking about many things, listening, knowing how to learn and knowing what to say and what not “.

-You seem very attached to the country. Did you have the fantasy of living here again?
-All time! If I were to live here again, I definitely would. I put everything in my bags and let’s go. I keep a lot of things … Several times I get a: that, mom …
-Like another porteña.
-Well, I’m sorry! The other day I thought I’m half Argentinian and half Mexican. Argentina is my home.
Suspense, romance, music and unfinished business
Lupe’s is not a world of colors. Colored by a family tragedy, which triggers the 10-episode plot, it involves a story of intrigue, love, and more than one unfinished business. “This is the first time I have a director, ‘Pipe’ Cano, who is so involved in the characters,” enthuses the actress and the only Mexican in the cast.
“It is a project full of good vibes and where there is spectacular talent. Not only do I tell the story. Even the singer Pipe Bueno (Noah, his musical partner) and the actor Christian Tappan ”, comment that he also gave the voice of him to the original soundtrack of the series.
The fact is that the music, with the songs produced by Mauricio Rengifo and Andrés Torres, is part of that world as much as the secrets that are hidden.
“I learned a lot from being in another country, that this challenge always touches me. Always carry the sponge with me to learn from each actor and be able to implant them in the character. I come from a super extrovert, all colors and this is the opposite. It took me a lot of work, but I enjoyed it, ”admits the teen idol, who some time ago hung up her skates.
